The U.S. Department of Education (DOE) will
begin mailing Renewal FAFSAs for the 1999-2000 academic year to those students
who applied for federal aid for 1998-1999. Students can complete
the paper Renewal FAFSA and mail it for processing on or afterJanuary
1, 1999. Alternatively, if your permanent mailing address has not changed,
you can complete the Renewal FAFSA with FAFSA on the Web at www.fafsa.ed.gov
on or afterJanuary 15, 1999.
Please note that if you are completing the Renewal FAFSA online, you must
have an Electronic Access Code number (EAC). This number is issued
by the U.S. Department of Education and is similar to a personal identification
number. It is provided as a security measure of updating your personal
and confidential information on the Internet. You can call the U.S.
Department of Education at (800) 4 FEDAID to request your EAC. Do not forget
to print and mail your certification page after transmitting your
application.

If you have changed your permanent address
from what you reported for the 1998-1999 academic year, a Renewal
FAFSA will not be mailed to your current address. For security
reasons, the DOE does not permit that Renewal FAFSAs be forwarded to a
different mailing address. Therefore in order to begin the 1999-2000
financial aid process, you must do one of the following:

1) Call DOE processing center at (319) 337-5665
to update your address information. For a limited time only,
your address can be updated so that you may receive a Renewal FAFSA.

2) Complete the paper FAFSA or electronic FAFSA
with FAFSA Express on or afterJanuary
1, 1999, FAFSA Express is a specially designed
software from the U.S. Department of Education. For your convenience,
the FAFSA Express software has been installed on a computer in the Registrar's
Office.

3) Complete the FAFSA online with FAFSA on the
Web at www.fafsa.ed.gov on or afterJanuary
15, 1999.
